On a slightly different note the PGMOL have sent referees out to Australia during the break between seasons to run technical sessions and referee matches. The last two that came out were D Coote and M Salisbury with K Barrat. David was SG2 at the time and Michael was not SG2. Would seem that the Australian trip is a pointer to promotion..... or just a happy coincidence.

This bugs me every time it happens. Now I was not out on the pitch but I would bet a pint (schooner in Wollongong) that players have told Kuipers to F@#$ off during this game. Yet when the referee controls the game by not going to cards to keep players on the field they complain. Same happened to Stuart Dougal in Scotland.

Funny how when the UCL comes to the pointy end Oliver goes missing, despite getting full support after his previous semi- final.
Zwayer still not recovered from his bust up with Brych as his 4th official.
As for predictions both Cakir and Kuipers have already done a UCL final I would love to see one get a second final.

Look at the date......

Players must be protected, if multiple players fouled the same opponent the YC must be brandished. The whole point of multiple players doing this is to avoid the YC and as refs we must protect skillful players.

Yellow for me too

With Paul Rieffel and Paul Wilson umpiring the third test, has there been another recent occurrence where two test players have umpired a test at the same time?

New Zealand smashed Covid as did Taiwan.
Here in Australia our state governments went hard early on it. Borders were closed unless essential.
Victoria has just come out of their hard lockdown that went for over 100 says. But here is the evidence
On July 30, England had 600 or so cases and Victoria had 700. The Victorian Premier went to hard lockdowns and the whole state almost stopped. He rode the negative media especial from Murdoch media.
Today Victoria are now 4 days in a row with 0 community transition.
New South Wales is down to under 4 community transition a day and our contact tracing is amazing!!!

How to beat Covid look to these 3 countries; NZ Aus and Taiwan.
